A perfect day out on the water, foiling. First time the GoPro mounted on the tiller extension. Not yet the perfect spot, however already good enough to get a rough impression on how foiling looks and feels like on the BirdyFish.
First time on a Hobie 16. Location: Saint Florent, Corse Camera: GoPro 7 black Software: iMovie, telemetry overlay, iTunes, flow-Polar Music: Annen/Mqy/Kantereit: Drei Tage am Meer David Gheta & Bebe Rexha: I am Good.
Almost perfect day.
Wind 2-3 bft. Location: Markkleeberger See, Leipzig, Germany Boat: K2, TopKat, 17 ft Camera: GoPro Hero 7 black. Less wind then forecast but managed to fly the hull - even if only for a short time.
Location: Schladitzer See (Neuseeland - Leipzig, Germany) Software: Telemetry overlay. Camera: GoPro Hero 7 black Film editing: None. One sequence. Pure sailing. No music.
TopCat K2 Proof of principle. Overlay with "attitude estimate" data to visualize the tilt angle of the cat while lifting the hull.
Video footage: GoPro Hero 7 black GPS- data: .gps- file, Polar M400 wristwatch Software/ Freeware: Virb edit, Mac version, Garmin Background: I always wanted to present nautical measures in my sailing videos. GoPro does not provide nautical measures. Solution: Here I synchronized GPS- data from my Polar M400 (any device that reads out .gps or .fit files can be used) and the video footage from my GoPro. For best results in synchronizing make sure you make a distinct manoeuvre at the very beginning of your sailing session (i.e. a jibe (as here) or a tack). The result is perfect for my needs. There are many helpful tutorials on how to do this on youtube. 2:07 First jibe used for data synchronization (video/ gps). 4:45 Second jibe to confirm correct data synchronization (video/ gps).
First time with a Hobie 15 in moderate wind on the Mediterran Sea (also first time in trapez). Waves are higher than one would think watching the movie. Highlights 6:50 perfect tack ? 7:52 crossing an incoming sailboat. Near miss! ? 8:45 losing the main sheet! Almost capsize!?
